    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Luton Town Match Thread - Saturday 15th Dec

    Even with a old fashioned centre forward up top? Not your style is it? Your correct tho, they play well. I quite admire they way Luton have been run as a club and been built back up since relegation to the national league Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Bakayoko at Walsall

    I’ve just seen the last few mins on I follow, indeed Bakayoko was down on the right so technically out of position but it’s clear why. Seconds before Walsall had a corner from the right, which Bakayoko cleared. Thomas chased the loose ball which went out for a throw. Bakayoko chased the ball...

    Bakayoko at Walsall

    I can only comment on being at the Cup game and highlights from this latest game out the two matches. My interpretation from what I’ve read and seen is Attacking phase --------------Burge------------ Sterling--Willis--Davies--Brown Bayliss------Kelly-------Shipley Thomas---Chaplin---Bakayoko...

    It don’t help Tom Davies is flat footed back peddling but the header had no conviction to it to trouble anyone, if your keepers at home he collects easily and wastes time a little allowing us to regroup to see the game out with just another 2 or mins left of play. Sent from my iPad using...

    Bakayoko at Walsall

    Telegraph write up said 4141. Tho in the Cup game It was also a bizarre set up that seemed similar to Saturday by the sounds. 433 in a attacking phase, 4141 in a defensive shape maybe? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Ponti

    Initially a little frustrated to see Maycock and Ponticelli both starting for a Macclesfield U23s game but when you think about it a new manager needs to see what he’s got in the squad. Ponticelli is getting up to speed again so have to understand that too. Still they are developing as...

    Who’s your forwards for the next game?

    It has to be Saturday Hiwula is finally given that chance with a run of games up top. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Who’s your forwards for the next game?

    I’m not so sure, I agree he won’t tend to change much if he feels we’re a chance away from unlocking games and he sticks with a starting 11 reasonably regular as a result if we’re not far off from game to game Saturday he made a big call in dropping Doyle and tried Kelly and Bayliss together in...

    Who’s your forwards for the next game?

    Lincoln away too, he’s a player who’s developed far better into a central defender looks hopelessly lost at right back now. No need for changes like that unless injuries mean it’s time to go ridged at the back Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Who’s your forwards for the next game?

    I disagree with JCH, I think it’s more MR style of play and asking him to play a target man type role with his back to goal often. The lack of supporting players getting near him leaves him often doing a thankless task. A few more opportunities for himself a game and he might get a better...

    Who’s your forwards for the next game?

    I thought about Bakayoko coming in off the side which I think would work well but I think he’s better in a sub role for that position if we’re chasing a game. Reservations I have is the defensive work and cover he’d offer Brown at left back. Hiwula struggled massively with this aspect of the...

    So, two weeks before Christmas

    That’s true sky have created a hype around the January window as it’s centred around the Premier Leagues big 6 and clubs looking to survive or make Europe. Championship is the same with the lure of getting over the line into the elite category or a key signing for survival. L1 and L2 in...

    The barometer to measure a performance varies in many I think it’s fair to say, but on Burge if he stays in his safe area of the goal, it don’t happen right? The chaos that followed afterwards don’t happen too. Goals win games very true but a costly mistake makes the difference here. Can we...

    Just two changes for me from last week and it’s the sharp/blunt end --------------Burge------------- Sterling--Willis--Davies--Brown Thomas-Bayliss-Kelly(c)-Shipley ---------Hiwula----JCH--------- Addai, Grimmer, Hyam, Doyle, Ogogo, Bakayoko, Chaplin Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Luton Town Match Thread - Saturday 15th Dec

    We’re not a bad side at home to be fair, resilient at least and grind out results and points. We’re not on par with Lutons home form but then I doubt many in the leagues are currently, and their away form is respectful due to the ability to score regularly. Bagging one or two early chances is...

    So, two weeks before Christmas

    January could be positive but could also be see the fan base turn toxic once again come midnight January 31st Interpretations from any January business could be misread very easily and isn’t going to be easy for MR to recruit under the current off pitch circumstances. Any sales may indicate...

    Who’s your forwards for the next game?

    Personally I think it’s more than time for Hiwula to be given a go with JCH as a pair in a 442. Chaplin needs a break out the starting 11, a spell on the bench like Hiwula had earlier in the season just to take the pressure off. It’s time for MR to man manage him now. Bakayoko I feel deserves...
